Angels & Winchesters || Flame + Solstice ||

Dean nodded "Alright" with that he sat down at the table and opened the laptop to browse the recent news stories.

Dean browsed the different news stories, not seeing anything right away, a few murders a few deaths, but nothing that screamed "this is a case".

Dean sighed softly, running his hand through his hair as he continued to read, subconsciously looking to see if anything sounded Amara related. Thus far, he hadn't talked about his encounter with her, and he intended to keep it that way.

"Yeah" Dean answered with a slight smile "Its just been a rough couple of months...You know that though." He rubbed the part of his arm that had been branded with the mark of Cain not too long ago. "And now we have another primordial force to deal with..."

Dean chewed the inside of his lip, in an almost unnoticeable way, and he shrugged softly "Last I heard Crowley had some interest in her. I would guess she is probably with him, if hes hasn't made her angry or anything." He rubbed his jaw "I am betting she could wipe him off the map if she wanted.

"Wait..." Gabriel said, having reappeared while they were talking "Aunt Amara is out and about?" He sounded surprised, but better than he had been before, having only needed a little true rest to perk himself back up.

Gabriel scoffed softly "Amara...under control? not even God himself could keep her sated..."

Dean looked to Gabriel with a slightly annoyed look "She hasn't really done much of anything yet...we should probably just let her be..." he didn't know why, but the need to defend Amara hit him like a truck, and he couldn't exactly stop himself from saying what he did. He quickly swallowed, noting how defensive he sounded, and looked to Cas "But I mean...Gabriel is probably right. I doubt Crowley would really be able to do anything if she decided she was done being with him"

Gabe swallowed softly and absently rubbed where his wound had been. "Well...I was there when we put her away last time" he shrugged "but that took god, and all of the archangels. Including Lucifer. So I would say for starters..."

"No. We are not going to Satan with our problems" Dean interjected, moodily. "No way. Next idea." Lucifer was definitely not on the board. Not after all the Winchesters had done to shove him back in the box.

Gabriel nodded softly "Yeah...I got stabbed. I get having a grudge. I do... All I am saying is, if you wanna vanquish the darkness, you might need the Light Bringer... just a thought." he said, referring to Lucifer by the meaning of his name."the enemy of my enemy is a friend."

Dean shook his head "Not in this Case. We can't trust either Lucifer or Amara. so adding someone we we can't trust, to fight someone we can't trust. I don't think so."

Gabe nodded softly "Alright...Perhaps I could rally some of the other angels...I doubt it would be very effective though...she can kill angels just the same as another being."

Gabe nodded softly "once again, enemy of an enemy is a friend. I know our siblings, and if Amara is out, they are gonna want to beat her first and foremost. But like I said..they wouldn't be good enough anyway...last time it took god and all the archangels...that's some heavy firepower to try and match."

Dean sighed softly and popped a cap off a bottle of drink, taking a swallow of it. "So basically we're up the creek with no paddle."

"We're up the creek without a canoe at all." Gabe replied.

Dean took another drink from the bottle, and swallowed, before answering Sam "He needed a safe place to stay and heal Sammy."

"Yeah, after being stabbed to help you out." Gabe pouted at Sam, a little bit hurt by his tone, but he figured it was to be expected with all their bad history "and I gotta name Gigantor..."

Dean shrugged softly "With the amount of times Cas has come back, I wouldn't doubt Gabriel could come back too. I trust Cas, and he said it was really Gabriel, so yes. I do think he is who he says he is." Continues to converse with Sam, as if Gabriel wasn't sitting there in the room with him, figuring if Sam didn't really care, he didn't care.

"I am sitting right here. You can talk to me, you know." Gabriel huffed at them, petulantly, before poofing up a chocolate bar to calm himself. He felt like a child who's parents were talking over him, as if he couldn't hear.

"'He' has a Name!" Gabe pouted at Sam. Definitely not above being childish. Especially when he was only at a fraction of his power. He was like a child with a cold, who had been told to stay in bed, and the patronizing from the two boys (talking as if he weren't there) was not really helping the situation. However he was glad that Sam had agreed to let him stay...not that they could really get rind of him, without getting rid of Cas too, but it still felt nice to be somewhat accepted.


Dean repressed a smirk, looking to his brother with amusement. With Sam being the little brother, he hadn't often got to talk down to others, as he was to Gabriel now. Growing up, John had been the top dog, with Dean in the middle, and Sam, who had been the base of the totem pole, as it were, not allowed to act supperior...until the Angels had shown up. It sort of amused Dean to be honest.

"Yes!" Gabriel sulked "My name is Gabriel. You can call me Gabriel." He looked at Sam poutily, having to physically look up to do so though, as he was quite a bit shorter than him "you moose."

Dean's green eyes lit with mirth as he hid a smile behind his hand, laughing softly. It had been a while since Dean had really laughed, but this just struck him as funny.
